There was no hangover for Alexander Zverev after his highly-publicized victory over Rafael Nadal on Monday. He masterfully refocused on the rest of his tournament, dominating a fine David Goffin in three sets (7-6, 6-2, 6-2) and just under 2.5 hours.

The first set was very tight, with the German only making the difference in the tie-break, before unleashing his tennis in the next two sets. Semi-finalist in the last three editions of the tournament and winner of the Rome Masters 1000 10 days ago, the world No. 4 seems to be establishing himself as a serious contender for the title this year in Paris.

Zverev will have the opportunity to confirm this in the 3rd round, where he will face either Tallon Griekspoor or Luciano Darderi on Saturday.

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Chwalinska and Huergo at the Quito tournament? The match was played to completion and on time. If TT feels the match is one sided, and of course it was, then don't put it up for prediction. This is getting irritating.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.
